Berries are a great thing to freeze and later use in smoothies. Also, if you are limited on freezer space and want to make freezer jams, you can crush your fruit, add lemon juice (if called for), and then measure the necessary amounts into freezer bags. They will lay flat in the freezer and save room until you are ready to thaw the fruit and make your jam.

I also dried some plain, that I simmer back into soups later in the year.
